X & Y Recent Happenings Thread

If you already own the games, go ahead and post anything that you have done in them here. You can post about beating a gym leader, encountering a legendary, losing a battle, etc.

Rules:
- You may only post 1 time every 20 posts. This is to prevent people from trying to increase their post count, and also to help you provide content to your post. Just don't spam now!
- Do not ask questions here. This is not the help thread, which you can find here: X & Y Help Thread
- Each post must contain 3 sentences or more. Don’t just post “Caught Fletchling.” This is obviously you either being lazy or trying to increase your post count.

Each of these rules will be enforced. If you break a rule, expect your post to be deleted, as well as expect an infraction waiting for you in your PM box.

My copy arrived about an hour ago and I'm loving it so far. Started with Fennekin which I've named Albus, and he's level 11. The number of Pokemon in this game is insane, I'm only in Santalune Forest and I've already caught 11 Pokemon!

Team at the moment is:

Albus/Fennekin lvl 11
- Scratch
- Tail Whip
- Ember
- Howl

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

Got the game early courtesy of Shopto and have barely put it down since yesterday! I still only have 1 badge and have racked up 7 hours, which goes to show just how much content there is in this game. My only complaint so far is the ridiculously long dialogue when picking your starter, since it makes resetting for a decent nature a nightmare. Team so far:

Why is the Help Thread closed? o.o
I got 3 badges and I have Charizard, Chesnaught and Pikachu. Also I have an Eevee. And since I can´t post in the question Thread:
Where is the move relearner? I need Charm for my Eevee ._.

Oops. I'm sorry. I can't believe I missed that. The thread is now open.

There is currently no mention of where the Move Relearner is, but there is a Move tutor on Route 21.

Only thing I didn't like about the brown-ish hair female starter look was the mini ponytail at the end of her hair.
Now I just found a barber in the biggest city and turns out, you can select between 4 hairstyles, 5 hair colors and "bangs" or "parted" for the front.

As there's no trade forum yet I'll have to post here. I've just received Amaura but have't saved in agessss and it turned out to be a boy, when I wanted a girl. Is there anyone who is at a stage where they can get an Amaura, or if they already have, a female one mine can breed with? I have a fennekin egg to offer, as well as keeping the original Amaura once I've bred. So a 2 for 1 deal if anyone can help! Thanks and Pm me for details.

PSA: Any board where I have asked for a perfect IV Ditto or friend safari Ditto, the trade has been done so all offers expired******

My Kadabra has a weird circle thingy in my team pokemon overview screen in the bottom right corner of it's status box.
It looks like a TM would look in past games, but it isn't holding any item.
Anyone got an idea what that might be?

Currently resetting for a decent IV'd Adamant/Jolly Event Torchic xD A Speed Boost Mega Blaziken seems too good to have as "Very Finicky" and Docile in nature =P RNG is not liking me at the moment though...getting trolled by a LOT of "Special Attacker" natures and IVs -.- Also trying to breed my Braixen so I can chuck Fennekins all over the GTS, cos that seems to be all people want for the later in the game 'mons =P Fun fun fun!

So I've finished the story. It definitely felt longer, but that can be thanked to the things to do before every gym. I especially liked the gap between the first and second gyms. Overall a great story, although I wish the Team Flare Scientists were utilized more in the story. I mean, some of them you saw once and they were done.

Just gone and caught myself a Zygarde. I got all excited to get there and forgot I didn't have many Pokéballs. Luckily, with a bit of determination, I got it in the end! It's HUGE!

I just caught 5 Honeedges hoping for at least a non-hindering nature.
All 5 of them had Bold nature.
Then I noticed my Kadabra has Synchro.../facepalm.

How can you get the torchic already? What Timezone are you in? The Event officially starts at 1 a.m. on saturday.

Serebii has it up as available now on the front page of the site =) I'm in the UK so it's only Friday afternoon here. I'd try downloading it now if I were you too, just to see if you can get it too =P What's the worst that can happen eh?

What's the characteristic that means it has good IVs in Attack? I want to SR for an adamant one too, but since it's low level the IV's won't be as accurate as one at level 50.

Now also soft resetting for a decent torchic.
But I don't think I'm even going to use it during playthrough.

"Likes to thrash about" is the Attack one IIRC, which I have only had on 1 Torchic so far that was Modest...*sigh* Good luck in your resetting! =D

Thank you! Hopefully mine won't take too long lol. That's quiet unlucky lol. Hope you get a good one soon :3

Characteristics don't guarantee anything.
You could have "likes to thrash about" and have an attack IV of 1, when everything else would be 0.
Yes, it is the only one that can be 31. But it can also be 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31.
Just use the IV Calc.
If you have an adamant one that likes to thrash about and it has 20 att; = 26 IV, if it has 22 = 31 IV.
